I have been busy

I have been so busy lately that I have not been able to do some decent posts about time wasters and fun stuff I have seen on the Internet or on TV.

first off I got my iPod and have since been loading it with every available podcast I can think of finding for all of my interests. I have found podcasts for comedy, nature, Photoshop and much more. I am going to look for some on motorcycles and kayaking and cooking as well. This crazy thing we call iTunes has been a lot of fun to explore. I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner, much much sooner. But I can change. I have embraced my previous Mac self. Yes, early on we had an Apple IIC and I loved that computer I spent hours working on Print Shop and animation studio and even a Toy Maker program. That was so much fun. I don’t think I’ll be trading in the PC computers anytime soon but I have forever disassociated myself with the notion of purchasing a Zune. It is all iPod for me now man.

Last night brought back the return of one of my favorite TV shows, PSYCH. I am so glad this show is back. I just love the chemistry between Shawn and Gus. Last night’s episode also had the guy who played Red Foreman on That 70’s Show as a friend of Shawn’s father and his daughter was played by the girl who was Ted’s girlfriend last season on How I Met Your Mother (the girl who was the baker). I also like how Shawn and Gus are about my age and like a lot of the cheesy 80’s stuff that I also like. The show is phenomenal so you have to check it out.

Let’s see I found a site through Pop Candy that allows you to make your own M&M’s character. So I went ahead and made a brown M&M character. Here is the character I made of me and the one I made for a Brown M&M.

You can make your own character at the become an MM dot com website.

Well that is all for now. I have to go to the supermarket for dinner tonight.

Camera Backpack

Last night I had dinner with our friends Autumn and Kenny. Kenny brought his new camera backpack. This thing was awesome. It had one large compartment for a laptop computer. Since I do so much digital stuff on a laptop this is a must for me. There was also a catch all compartment for he easy to grab stuff like my mini tripod and whatnot. But the best part is the padded, adjustable pocket for the camera and lenses and memory cards and spare batteries and all the things that I would need when taking the camera out on a photo shoot. I admit it I have backpack envy right now. I will have to save my pennies because even though the pack is on sale at Amazon it still is a bit expensive and I made all my huge purchases for the month with all the other stuff I got and ordered. But soon when I earn a bit more play money I will get myself a great pack like Kenny’s.
